Skip to content The Microneedling with PRP procedure at the Center for Aesthetic Medicine in Las Vegas, NV, is designed to reduce fine lines, improve skin tone, and create younger-looking skin. Your blood contains amazing properties that heal and repair your tissue. Isn’t your body amazing?
During the microneedling with PRP procedure, your practitioner will draw a vial of your own blood and spin it inside of a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma, growth factors, and other nutrients from the blood. The vial of platelet-rich fibrin looks like a yellowish serum on one side of the vial and blood on the other. The serum is what creates the magic for your skin.
In the next step, your practitioner at the Center for Aesthetic Medicine, will create micro-trauma to the skin using a technique called microneedling. The micro-trauma (caused by microneedling) begins a process called the healing cascade, which alerts your body to start the healing process by repairing the area that has experienced the injury. Your body does this as a natural response to any injury, which is how your body begins to heal after you cut yourself. With the addition of the platelet-rich plasma serum (PRP), your body’s healing response goes into overdrive by stimulating extra collagen and elasticity, thus creating new vascularization, adipose tissue, and epithelial cells, thus generating amazing-looking younger skin.
Good candidates for microneedling with PRP skin treatments in Las Vegas, are those who have mild to moderate wrinkles, acne scars, stretch marks, or other signs of aging or sun damage. Skin tone and enlarged pores can also be improved with this treatment. People with darker skin may need additional treatments to reduce the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
No, a topical numbing agent is applied before the procedure to ensure your comfort. Any discomfort during the treatment is minimal.
The number of PRP microneedling sessions needed to see results varies from patient to patient, depending on the condition being treated. Generally, a series of 3-6 treatments is recommended for optimal results.
The results of microneedling with PRP can typically last up to two years. However, the results typically vary from person to person.
The duration of a microneedling session depends on the treatment area but typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes.
There is minimal downtime associated with microneedling with PRP. You may initially experience minor swelling and redness, which typically subsides within a few hours.
